hi we dont know one another but I just read your message. Please! please keep thinking about your two beautiful children - they need you!

my mum tried to kill herself when i was a teenager, she dropped us at our aunts and drove away. we found her suicide notes to each of us. luckily my aunt found her before she could do it.

what u have to think bout is whether ur willing to put ur kids in the exact same pain ur in just now. i have a daughter who is 2, and iv often wanted to just stop, to kill myself. what stops me is my wee one. she didnt ask for me to bring her into this world and i am responsible for her for the rest of my life. i would rather live with my pain tenfold than ever cause her one ounce of what i feel.

i may sound harsh and i dont mean to be its just that i get really emotional when i read posts like this. i want to reach out and hold u and stop u and i cant. pls let me know that u will not do this as i honestly will be upp all night worrying aabout u and ur kids.

throw everything you bought away, don't let it sit there and think about it.

do think about your children, love them. when you're hurting like this, look at their little faces, look in their big beautiful eyes, give them a BIG hug, sit and play or talk with them. children have all innocence in life, they don't know depression or think of hurting themselves, they know happy fun stuff, go see that from them.
